  • Mmm...hmm...hmm...mmm...hmm...
    Yeah, yeah

    When I was a young boy
    I had visions of fame
    They were wild and they were free
    They were blessed with my name

    And then I grew older
    And I saw what's to see
    That the world is full of pain
    And my dreams they left me

    And then I got stronger
    Inside of the pain
    That's when I picked up the pieces
    And I regained my name

    And I fought hard, y'all
    To call by my place
    And right now you could ask me
    And it all seems in vain

    [Your dreams ain't easy] Your dreams ain't easy
    [You just stick by your plan] You just stick by your plan
    [Go from boys to men] Go from boys to men
    [You must act like a man] You gotta act like a man
    [When it gets hard, y'all] When it gets hard, y'all
    [You just grab what you know] Got what you know
    [Stand up tall and don't you fall] And my background sing

    You will know [You will know], yeah...eah...
    [You will know]
    [You will know] You will know, you will know
    [You will know]

    And I know you're cryin'
    'Cause it's all in his vein
    And the things you want you can't have
    It just all went away

    But life ain't over
    Hoo...hoo...
    Just grab the winds and make demands
    And the vibe will take you far

    [Your dreams ain't easy] Your dreams ain't easy
    [You just stick by your plan] Stick by your plan, boy
    [Go from boys to men] Go from boys to men
    [You must act like a man] I know it ain't easy
    [When it gets hard, y'all] it gets hard sometime
    [You just grab what you know] Yes, it does
    [Stand up tall and don't you fall] Stand up tall, don't you fall, and you will know, yeah

    [You will know]
    [You will know] Ah...ah...ah... (You will know)
    [You will know] Hey, there's no doubt about it
    [You will know] Hey, you will know

    [You will know] You will know
    [You will know] Hey...ey...hey...
    [You will know] You will know, yeah
    [Oh, you will know] Hey...

    [Your dreams ain't easy] Your dreams ain't easy
    [You just stick by your plan] Stick by your plans
    [Go from boys to men] Boys to men
    [You must act like a man] You must act like a man
    [When it gets hard, y'all] It ain't hard, yeah
    [You just grab what you know] Grab what you know
    [Stand up tall and don't you fall] Oh...oh...oh...

    [Your dreams ain't easy]
    [You just stick by your plan] Hey...hey...yeah
    [Go from boys to men] Boys to men
    [You must act like a man] I know it ain't easy
    [When it gets hard, y'all]
    [You just grab what you know] Yeah...
    [Stand up tall and don't you fall] Come on D and sing this song

    [You will know] Yeah...
    [You will know] You will know
    [You will know]
    [You will know] Hey...

    [You will know]
    [You will know]
